Basilosaurus Blubber — Detailed Guide
Blubber that pays for boss portals
Basilosaurus Blubber is a hunting trophy in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. It comes from the 
Basilosaurus and is spent on tributes that summon bosses. The in-game line: "This trophy proves your worth as a hunter."
Collecting it
Loot the carcass first: check the inventory of a dead Basilosaurus before you start harvesting meat and hide. If you harvest before checking, or predators eat the body, the blubber is left behind in a bag on the ground. Our records name the Basilosaurus as the creature that drops it, along with one loot table named after it.
